this is my first attempt at taking close-up/macro shots. having to get so close with the camera i have (Fuji E510), i couldnt figure out a way to get better light. i had the barrel of the lens almost touching the compass when i shot so i didnt have alot of room to work with using the only light i could manipulate easily. in this shot, you can see the shadow of the lens on the compass. does anyone have any ideas that i could use to get better lighting, and any overall criticism/advice on the pic would be helpful too.
also, the shot was done with all manual settings, so i would appreciate any feedback about the settings i used. i will post the EXIF data after the pic. thank you (in advance) to anyone who gives me any comments/criticism/advice.
and here is the EXIF data i got from Exifer.
